The “Anchor Realty” brand has been associated with real estate in North West Florida since 1962. The first real estate company with “Anchor” in its name was Anchor Realty & Mortgage Company, founded by Dwight Marshall, Jr. (1924-2002) and Willie Norred (1925-2015); Dwight originally operated out of his beachfront home on St. George Island as “Dwight I.

Willie Norred was a relative of Jimmy Bloodworth (1917-2002), a Major-League Baseball player for the “Pittsburgh Pirates”, born in Apalachicola. Bing Crosby composed a song in his honor “We’re on our Way (to Apalachicola F-L-A)” …
